INTEL’S LEARNING CURVE by Andrew S. Grove

“I remember a meeting of our executive staff in which we were discussing Intel’s new direction as a ‘microcomputer company.’

Our chairman, Gordon Moore, said, ‘You know, if we’re really serious about this, half of our executive staff had better become software types in five years’ time.’

The implication was that either the people in the room needed to change their areas of knowledge and expertise or the people themselves needed to be changed. I remember looking around the room, wondering who might remain and who might not.

As it turned out, Gordon Moore was right. In our case, about half the management transformed themselves and were able to move in the new direction. Others ended up leaving the company.”
